It is the best you idiot. T3 is wher fighting games really became a mainstay and mainstream. Sf2 and the movie etc began it but even so it was only for straight up 2d based gameplay. T3 revolutionized everything and propelled fighters. The story was vastly superior the moves and combos the memorable characters the stories for all and video for their wins, side game modes like tekken force and beach ball were awesome. Introducing a big variety of mechanics like fucking gon the dino or boskoovich who laid down fighting, the music itself was dope. People competed a abit but like the ither guy said, it wasnt what peopled aimed for nor did they over analyze. It was a game loved by all not just some here or there and used for competition. Though it was a bit. In general its the besr game. If i was to score it on every aspect possible it would have high scores or highest over any other game in every aspect. Its that well made for the time

If it wasn't for T3, I wouldn't be following this franchise. What a timeless gem.

I can understand your view but Tekken 2 shouldn't just get disregarded. Sure its gameplay mechanics were not so good compared to T3 and newer (T3 was brilliant in this), but it excelled in presentation with its atmospheric soundtrack, the thoughtful stages and designs, a very good plot and arguably the best boss fight with Kazuya/Devil (Ogre/True Ogre are a joke)... T2 was the pinnacle of production quality in the series.

Tekken 2 Kazuya: am I a joke to you?

To me, Tekken 3 stuck with me because of the particular attention to the 3D art of each character and the OST. Despite being around 2 decades and the graphics being outdated, you can TELL how emotive they were in their little cutscenes, as well as the human like facial details of each character, but without that uncanny details. Xiaoyu doesn't look like another cute anime girl and funny thing is, she looks like a real-life woman I pass by in my old apartment neighborhood and she knows about Tekken and how some of us kid around how she looks like the game character! And the soundtracks!! Of course, our fave was Xiaoyu's rock and roll oriental techno-pop music, then Julia Chang's heavy synths, Jin Kazama's rock acid type of sound and the Ogres very specific sound, like bodily functions became instruments. Aahhhh... This game has made a lasting impression 💖💎

Amazing video as always Arya, keep up the good work! Also, some bits about Tekken 3 moves The last hit of Jin's 112 can sometimes go straight past the opponent's face, which is just hilarious to look at. Two wimpy punches feel powerful and the stronger blow just does nothing. The second hit of Heihachi and Hwoarang's uf+3,4s are unblockable if you time the 4 as late as possible Jin can get a df2 after CH b,f+2, and the df2 itself gave you a tight, but possible electric. Jin's ws4,4 deals 40 damage, a lot more than the normal df4,4. His hellsweep can deal 48 to 51 damage instead of 44 to 47, if you do a crouch dash and release, then press 4,4 instead of dashing in for a df4,4. Law's Junkyard can pass through enemies in some juggling attempts. Gon's immune to all throws, and probably meant to be immune to all highs, but he's still vulnerable to electrics.

*We as Video Games Community need Tekken 3 4K-8K HD Remake for PS5 . I mean Demons Soul's got a brand new Remake. Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 got a brand New Remake. So, it is only right that a True Original Retro Classic for Arcades and Video Game Consoles such as Legendary Tekken 3 would get a proper brand new 4K-8K HD Remake for PS5 !!! Thumbs Up and Like , If You all Agree !*

Umm Virtua Fighter is the mother of all 3D games and it was not the first game to use sidestep. See VF3

I really hope this becomes a series. It's strange how many people pine for some golden age of Tekken where the game was amazingly balanced and combos all did fair damage. Not a single Tekken game has ever been like that, no idea why people think that

absolutely fantastic video! Love peeping game from the old masters 😉

Oh, the memories.. I remember how amazed i was of the different outcomes a round can have because of the 3d and all the fine mechanics the game had. Playing Xiaoyu against Yoshi was always something amazing to witness.

You know what they say The third strike is what counts! Respect to all fighters out there!

*My Xiaoyu finally getting the respect she deserves!*

Hey. Just curious do you play on PC? It's just impossibly rare for me find a xiaoyu in Asia.

Aah man, this takes me back to when I used to live in Pakistan. And hoarding the arcade coins just to learn Lei Wulong. I remember people used to abuse the Ogre throws back then, this is a huge nostalgia blast. Great video Arya.

This one right here was my introduction to fighting games. God bless it

The Tekken of today must always pay respect to the Legendary Tekken3. I'm so happy to still have this on ma PS1. #TekkenBaby🤘🔥

I used to be a *Paul* main at that time and u guys know what I exactly did to my opponents 😉 I was the champion of my city

Love you videos! GGs the other night!

Awesome, thanks for the content!

i still remember the day i witnessed the first images of tekken 3 on a game magazine.. i kept looking at it almost everyday!! the cg renders of the character still awesome even today!! i really miss jin being the hero protagonist.. it fit him so well.. sadly he became like a drama queen later.. which is boring..

Probably my favourite game ever

i didnt get a notification from this video, i got it recommended on my feed, lol nice work guys, good video.

Awesome video!! Would love to learn about more fighting games or even more tekken games!

That and there wasn't a bloated ass roster like there is in T7.

I wish Bandai Namco hires an Indy Developer to Remaster Tekken 3.

Amazing video as always dude love it 😍 Tekken 3 was my first tekken as a kid and now I'm 26 almost 27 played all tekken games and always will forever 😎✌

Nicely done Arya!! EXCELLENT retrospective!!

My initial impression of T3 was disappointment. It went from the amazing individual stages (the Acropolis, Taj Mahal, Korean Temple etc) in T2 to dull generic shared stages. The great soundtrack full of ethnic music was replaced mostly by generic themes. The worst thing though was losing all my favourite characters Baek, Bruce and especially Kazuya. I thought at the time a Mishima without mist step was clunky. mist step could be used for a lot of things not just faster CDs. Before wavedash and teching you could use mist step to extend your crouch dash and pressure people especially on oki. Mist step could also be used as a sidestep if timed well. I remember that Gamesmaster footage at the end. I saw that episode when it was on tv. It was an exciting time as T3, VF3 and SF3 all came out around the same time. VF3 was the most impressive though.

Agreed. Tekken 3 came out shortly after VF3, and while it added tech rolling, which is huge & VF wouldn’t get until 4, if you look at the games side by side, VF’s desire to push the technological envelope puts its graphics & sounds well above tekken 3.

@Tcb bct Quite a lot of stages are shared between characters in 3 and many of them are bland looking. In Tekken 2 from what I remember only the 2 palette swaps share a stage with someone everyone else gets their own unique distinctive stage with music really personalized for them.

@Tcb bct That's what I mean there were a lot of shared dull looking stages in 3. In Tekken 2 only the palette swaps Alex and Angel shared a stage with anyone. Panda wasn't in Tekken 2. In 2 Nina's stage is the Acropolis, Anna the Taj Mahal and Jack a brightly lit industrial site at dusk. In 3 they share the same boring looking factory. The music is personal preference but I like 2s way more. Both of Kazuya's themes are amazing and there's so much variety.

@Tcb bct This was my impression of the 2 games at the time. I didn't get a chance to play Tekken in the arcades until TTT1, Tekken wasn't a common arcade so my thoughts are about the console versions where Tekken 2 got a much improved arranged soundtrack. I know some of the Tekken 1 themes were reused in T2 but because I only played T1 briefly before 2 it mostly sounded new and fresh to me. There were also lots of new ones. Anna had her own spot on the character select screen and her own stage. Julia and Heihachi are not palette swaps and neither are Paul and Bryan or Nina and Jack.

T3 has the best soundtrack of all tekken, and tekken is in need of a similar time jump, refinment.

In my honest opinion Tekken 2 had the most legendary soundtrack. However Tekken 3 still stands well compared to the dubstep of T6 and T7.

I think it's being long due to delete ling from the game now.

Please make more of these! Your Videos are a joy to watch. Would also love to see Tekken 1 and 2. Keep up the good work!

This game always makes me emotional and nostalgic, thank you.

I can get down with this Top 5. It was great seeing Tekken history put together in a form factor so clean. Great video!

you guys did a wonderful job!

Amazing content as always!!

Excellent vid!

great review

more please, this is hella fun to watch :D

More more more more, thanks you !! Great vids

Pretty much my favourite Tekken game ever. Nothing will ever come close to this. The gameplay, the soundtrack, the massive combos, sound effects, game modes, stage design and Tekken Force mode were all perfect. I will always love this game.
